Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Classics
"That's right." Leon turned around and said to Lars Gul El with a smirk, "I heard that you also have a body healing ability that is far beyond that of ordinary people? ”
The Assassin Leader's whole body was like falling into an ice cave, his heart was pounding and on the verge of exploding, and his scalp was numb like thousands of ants crawling.
"My ability to heal myself came from an accident," he said with difficulty, squeezing out a smile with difficulty, showing a humble and gentle smile as he had learned all his life, and confessed like a bamboo tube pouring beans, "I don't know if you know anything about the Gospel of the Bible, John. ”
"I know a little bit about it," Leon nodded, "I'm a little interested in the ancient books that are circulating today. ”
"That would be great." Lars Gul Al breathed a sigh of relief that he was not the kind of atheist who did not accept religion at all, which helped him to narrate, "In John 11:1, there was a sick man named Lazarus who lived in Bethany, the village of Maria and her sister Martha. ”
"I know this story," said Leon indifferently, "Lazarus was sick and died, and lay in the tomb for four days, until Jesus came and had the stones of the tomb removed, so that Lazarus, whose hands and feet were wrapped in cloth and his face was wrapped in a handkerchief, came out of the tomb and rose from the dead." ”
"That's right, this religious story is about miracles." "Hundreds of years ago, when I was on the verge of dying, I accidentally fell into an unnamed hot spring, and when I crawled out of the spring, there was no scar on my body, and any wound caused by the sword would heal immediately, and not even time could leave a mark on me. ”
"And this kind of thing?" Leon's desire to study suddenly came to him, and he looked at the Assassin leader with interest, a chuckle on the corner of his mouth, "You go on. ”
“.... Good. Lars Gul El took a deep breath and said frankly with the mentality of early death and early transcendence, "Since then, I have always believed that I have been chosen by the gods to be the spokesman, and I immediately founded the Assassin League, with the purpose of 'justice needs to be achieved with my own hands', and spread my will all over the world. ”
"Wait, after all these years, you don't have any more merits besides the Assassin League?" Li frowned and said, "You have a long lifespan and can accumulate countless wealth, and instead of thinking about how to absorb knowledge and how to change the world, you have a big brain and gather a group of assassins in tights to wreak havoc?" ”
Lars Gul El was choked on his words, and if someone else dared to make such a big statement in front of him, he would have been cut to pieces by a thousand knives.
It's a pity that people under the eaves have to bow their heads, compared to the plans of the young man in the white coat, the assassin leader is like a gentle and harmless guinea pig.
Lars Gul Eyre, who couldn't refute, stiffened his neck and stared, not knowing what to say, but fortunately, Leon didn't pay much attention to this question and asked casually, "So where is this hot spring?" ”
"A remote mountainous region in southern Israel." The Assassin leader said cautiously: "I have searched all the ancient texts I can find, and I have come to the conclusion in the vague and suggestive ancient texts that the hot springs are the same as the Pool of Lazarus, the holy place that Jesus once visited, and this is why I have assumed that I am somehow special. ”
It was hard to hold back the look of contempt at Leon, who himself was a transcendent with strange powers, able to understand the behavior of mortals looking for virtual solace in religion.
However, the essence of human existence is by no means limited to this, if we are too obsessed with sectarian texts, indulge in conservatism, stagnate in progress, and refuse to be aggressive and innovative, we will only fall into the vicious circle of more ignorance and more ignorance and more belief.
Understanding the world, analyzing the world, and transforming the world is the way forward for human beings......
Li Ang let out a breath of turbidity, too lazy to waste words with the assassin leader, and said lightly: "I know, I will take your blood sample and prepare for relevant experiments, and then I will give you a pen and paper to let you write down everything you know as much as possible." ”
Lars Gul El was still unwilling, gritted his teeth and said, "Aren't you interested in the miracles that have been written in the Bible?" ”
"Eat the rice one bite at a time, and take one step at a time." Li Ang spread his hands and said indifferently: "I have too many research topics at hand, magic circuits, Norse runes and even flesh puppets, each of which requires time and energy, I will go to investigate the pool of Lazarus you mentioned, but not now." ”
Biblical stories may be sacred and attractive to Westerners, but for Leon, a Chinese alchemist, there is no natural religious bonus, and it can only be regarded as a memo in the research catalog.
After dropping off Lars Gul El in a private room, Leon took out his phone and called Robert Cullen, the broker.
"Good evening, boss." Robert sounds cheerful and positive, tired and happy these days when he has been busy putting the finishing touches on the acquisition of the gang's estate, and even more so when his ex-wife's company is on the verge of closure.
Leon said directly, "Robert, where are you now?" ”
"Uh... I play video games at Jimmy's house. ”
The two greasy middle-aged men are lying on the sofa at this time, holding the PS4 gamepad to overcome difficulties in "Battlefield 1" - according to their now suddenly large wallets, they should take advantage of the weekend events to go to nightclubs to party and spend, but the busy work days have made them run out of oil, and they really don't have the energy to have fun.
"That's right, I want to start a company and need the help of both of you."
The economist paused for a moment, glanced at the lawyer, reacted immediately, quietly turned off the PS4, and cautiously asked into the microphone of the mobile phone: "Boss, can I ask what type of company it is?" ”
"Raw meat."
"I'm familiar with this," Robert sighed secretly, he was born into a farm family in the Great Plains in the middle of the United States, and is particularly familiar with the agricultural industry chain, "I wonder what kind of raw meat you plan to make, boss?" Upstream breeding or downstream slaughter retail? Where to set up a factory? ”
Li Ang didn't talk nonsense and asked, "Do you have a computer by your side?" ”
"Yes."
An email message was sent directly to Robert's mailbox, and while he was amazed at how efficient his employer was, he sat down at his laptop and opened the email.
The email contains a large number of complex scientific research records, which are like a book from heaven to economists and lawyers, but fortunately, the product descriptions and production line design that are briefly summarized later are still within the scope of the two of them.
Robert and Jimmy became more and more frightened the more they looked at each other, and finally they looked at each other, their eyes wide and small, and their eyes were full of horror and excitement.
"We're going to get in big trouble."
"No, we're going to get rich....."
Two middle-aged men huddled in front of the cramped computer screen, their bloated faces reflecting the cold light of the screen, looking extremely greasy.
